One isotope of carbon (C) has exactly the same mass number and atomic mass since it was used as the definition of the atomic mas

Answer:The isotope is Carbon-12 and its atomic mass is 12.

Explanation:

Mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus.

Atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.

An isotope of a chemical element is an atom that has a different mass number but the same atomic number as the element. The difference in mass number is from the number of neutrons (that is, a greater or lesser atomic mass) than the standard for that element.

Carbon-12 is an isotope of carbon it has 6 neutrons and 6 protons, giving it a mass number of 12 and atomic number of 6. Carbon-12 is a stable isotope of carbon, it has the same mass number and atomic number as carbon.

A graduated cylinder contains 20.8 mL of water. What is the new water level, in milliliters, after 35.2 g of silver metal is sub
stepladder [879]

<u>Answer:</u> The new water level of the cylinder is 24.16 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of water displaced by silver, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of silver = 10.49 g/mL

Mass of silver = 35.2 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

10.49g/mL=\frac{35.2g}{\text{Volume of silver}}\\\\\text{Volume of silver}=\frac{35.2g}{10.49g/mL}=3.36mL

We are given:

Volume of graduated cylinder = 20.8 mL

New water level of the cylinder = Volume of graduated cylinder + Volume of water displaced by silver

New water level of the cylinder = (20.8 + 3.36) mL = 24.16 mL

Hence, the new water level of the cylinder is 24.16 mL

What is the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons when cesium is exposed to UV rays of frequency 1.0×1015Hz?
Anvisha [2.4K]
In order to emit electrons, the cesium will have to absorb photons. Each photon will knock out one electron by transferring its energy to the electron. Therefore, by the principle of energy conservation, the energy of the removed electron will be equal to the energy of the incident photon. That energy is calculated using Planck's equation:

E = hf

E = 6.63 x 10⁻³⁴ * 1 x 10¹⁵
E =  6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules

The electron will have 6.63 x 10⁻¹⁹ Joules of kinetic energy

the volume of gas in a container was originally 3.24L, while at standard pressure 1.00 atm. what will the volume be if the press
Simora [160]
Hello!

To solve this problem, we will use the Boyle's Law, which describes how pressure changes when volume changes and vice-versa. The equation for this law is the following one, and we'll clear for V2:

P1*V1=P2*V2 \\ \\ V2= \frac{P1*V1}{P2}= \frac{3,24 L * 1 atm}{1,20 atm}= 2,7 L

So, the final volume after increasing the pressure would be 2,7 L. That means that volume decreases when the pressure increases
